Recs if you like The Golem and the Jinni...

Chill-fueled journeys through frostbitten kingdoms, forbidden wards, and legends carved in ice. Perfect for readers craving grand myths wrapped in winter magic.

If we are going to do Qwordy's the Hardest Reading Challenge You'll Ever Do 3.0 - we should probably get some Pagebound badges along the way! I'm specifically going to be adding books from Quests and readalongs that go past the July start date and match at least one of these title prompts: Periodic Table, Familial Terms, Rainbow of Words (also Joseph's coat), Numerical Titles, Titular Counting 5+, Pun in the Title, and First & Last Name in the Title. Recommendations welcome!

Fiction has always been where truth hides. Across horror, thriller, literary fiction, fantasy & mystery every book on this list has something to say about power, who holds it, who destroys it, and how it reproduces itself.

Books that blend the magic of fantasy with real world history (i.e., books set within actual historical time periods and not inspired-by settings). Feedback and recs welcome!

A list of Jewish fantasy books (mostly adult or ya). These books have Jewish characters, themes, or based on Jewish mythology.

Did you know there's more to Jewish fiction than WWII books? Suggestions welcome as long as they aren't zionist propaganda 🇵🇸

books inspired by folklore and mythology

Forget everything you know about the golden hour. In these halls, knowledge isn't just power—it's a blood sacrifice, a cursed bargain, or a secret that could tear the stars from the sky. Whether you're navigating the lethal corridors of the Scholomance, deciphering the forbidden linguistics of Oxford’s silver-working, or joining a secret society at Yale that deals in the ghosts of the past, this list is for the scholars who prefer their ink black and their magic dangerous.

fiction with jewish protagonists! got so many suggestions from reddit

Dropout TV presents Dimension 20's Unsleeping City, an urban fantasy set in New York City with classic characters from Broadway Stars to Sewer Rats. Enjoy two season with the intrepid heroes and enjoy these book recommendations to pair with the vibes and cast.

Do you want to read some good science-fiction/fantasy? These novels have it (subjective). Here, mostly queer, anti-colonial, dripping with world building and other bodily fluids. Without a reliable narrator in sight! These are written for adults, that does NOT mean they are inherently spicy. Good Luck!~

books i’m hoping to read for my first r/fantasy bingo

I’m an audiobook lover, and I’m always looking for great audiobooks! Rather than just listing my favorites, I thought I’d make a list of audiobooks that have won Audie Awards from 2010-2015.

There are so many, so I stuck to specific categories. Not all categories are in all years, so there is some inconsistency. I included the following categories:

• Audiobook of the year
• Autobiography/Memoir
• Erotica
• Spanish
• Fantasy
• Fiction
• History/Biography
• Humor
• Horror
• Literary Fiction
• Classics
• Middle Grade
• Mystery
• Nonfiction
• Romance
• Science Fiction
• Short Stories/Collections
• Thriller/Suspense
• YA/Teens
• Paranormal

Happy listening!
